Buying Guide

Digital photo frames are an excellent way to display your photos and share your happiest memories with family and friends. Having the right frame that best meets your needs, and most suits your tastes, will impress your family and friends and accent any room for years to come.

There are many frames to choose from.

We suggest you consider the five simple “rules” listed below when purchasing your digital photo frame:

1. Conisder the features you want

There are many different features offered on different types of frames. While displaying your photos will most likely be your number one concern, other features such as setting your slideshow to music, ability to play videos, or even size and design, might be more important to you. Even the color of the frame might be important, especially if you want to match it to a specific room’s decor.

2. Be aware of the resolution

While price is very important to most people, do not settle for a low-resolution frame just to save a few pennies on its cost. We strongly suggest choosing a frame(s) that has a minimum resolution of 640 x480 in order to best display your photos in a fashion you will find most attractive.

3. Choose your aspect ratio

While you may find a digital photo frame with a 15:9 aspect ratio suitable to your needs, most cameras take photos at a 4:3 ratio and you will probably want to choose a frame with these parameters.

4. Know your needs and comfort zone

Digital frames can offer a wide array of features from a basic display screen to state-of-the-art technology like streaming internet radio and everything in between. Choose the one that best fits your needs and doesn’t stress you out over learning how to use it. While all of the frames come with user-friendly instruction manuals, and the technology is fairly easy to use, if you are a total newbie to this you may find some features more difficult to use than others.

5. Brand and pricing

You should not buy a digital picture frame based strictly on brand and/or price. Consider all the features offered, the design, and how everything combined satisfies your tastes and needs.

There are many styles and brands to choose from and its very common to mix sizes and styles to best meet your needs and suit your tastes. It will of course depend upon your individual taste but it’s even nice to combine traditional photo frames with their newer, state-of-the-art counterparts. Displaying photos in this manner will enhance any room and impress your family, friends and guests.
